Chapter 11: In The Unkown!!
A flash of light shone into my eye as I blinked. One second, I was at the academy, and the next second, I was—well, I was… Where am I?
"Oh, he has woken up," a stranger's voice said. Hmmm… this thought feels very familiar.
"Ooh, yes, bring the food," another replied.
Everywhere looked different. Without being conscious of anything around me, I stood up sharply. "Where are they?" I was on guard.
"Relax, we are the only ones here." I could tell that it was the first stranger still talking, though I was feeling kind of faint.
"I said, where are they?" I asked, taking a stance.
"They?! Who are they?" Stranger 2 said.
"Where are the guards?!!"
[Stranger 1 & 2] "There are no guards here."
"But I don't understand…"
[Stranger 1] "Boy, if you don't feel at ease around guards, I assure you, I am not one and don't know one either."
"Hmmm." Like I thought, first the pool of blood, then the school's sickbay, now this? What is happening?
[Stranger 1] "My name is Amelie, and this is Jonah, my husband." She points at Stranger 2. "So tell us, what don't you understand?"
Seems like I have forgotten a chunk again. Typical Anon… but I can explain things to them.
"Well… one minute I was fighting some guards, and as I blinked, I found myself here."
[Jonah] "I don't know about that, but all I know is that my wife and I were cultivating on our farm when we noticed you lying there unconscious. We thought it wouldn't be right to leave you laying there, so we took you in. How you got here and why is unknown to us."
Why does this seem to happen to me? Every time I am getting used to an environment, I somehow get into a new one without knowing how or why.
"Hmmm, thank you very—"
It feels like I am forgetting something. I looked around the room and realized.
"WHERE IS ANGEL?!"
"What do you mean? You need to rest."
I stood up in haste to look for Angel. "Where is Angel? The other girl I was with!"
[Amelie] "You were the only one we saw."
"What do you mean the only one you saw? I was with my friend; she is hurt!"
[Amelie] "I promise you, we will find Angel, but for now, you need to rest."
"How do you expect me to rest when my only friend is missing?"
[Jonah] "We didn't see her, so this could mean she was found by someone else, or maybe, where you said you were with the guards—that will be my opinion. Because you said you were fighting some guards, and as you blinked, you were here, but to us, that isn't the case."
"What do you mean?"
[Amelie] "Well, dear, we found you while looking for some herbs, and you were unconscious. It isn't just that; you have been unconscious for two days since we found you. So, your friend Angel might have been found by someone else, or she is still with the guards. Since you were found in the woods and with all those wild animals roaming, she might have been…"
"Noooooo!!! She can't be! I know for a fact I will find her wherever she is. I will never believe she is dead unless I see it for myself."
[Jonah] "That's the spirit, boy. So take a rest while Amelie and I go and find out if we can gather any information relating to her in any way."
"Then I am coming with."
[Amelie] "You need to rest; we will do all the work."
"But according to you, I have been resting for two days."
[Jonah] "Yes, you have been laying here for close to three days."
"Three days!? I thought Amelie said two days."
[Amelie] "I said that isn't close to three, still two."
"Oh, okay." That was weird, but I ignored the thought.
[Amelie] "Which means you still have to rest. Someone who was unconscious for over two days needs to rest more. We will get something for you on our way back." As she said that, it struck me.
"Oh, sorry, where am I?"
[Amelie] "This is our home."
"I know about that. I mean, am I still in the COMMON realm?"
[Jonah] "Yes, yes, this is the COMMON realm."
[Amelie] "Okay, just make yourself at home. This room right here will be your room for now until you are okay to leave. If you need anything, you can check downstairs or around."
"Okay."
[Amelie] "Okay, that's all. If we get any information on your friend Angel…"
"Thanks."
They left the room and departed the building. They said I could make myself at home. Okay, I can't just sleep while I can do something for these people who cared for me while I was unconscious. I stood up and looked around to examine my environment well. This was an all-wooden built building, surrounded by beautiful flowers and wooden furniture, both around and within the building. Looking outside to the remote-looking streets of the village, with trees around and bushes, it's definitely not as modern as the school. I should get to cleaning.
I looked for their cleaning supplies and started cleaning right away. I started from the top floor where I was, to the base where the living room was, cleaning and cleaning until some things were sparkling white—literally.
I believe I cleaned for hours and hours until—
"Hmmm, this rug looks out of place and dirty. I should move it."
I picked up the gigantic rug in the living room, and to my surprise, I saw something.
"Wow, there is an underground store here. Nice, but weird."
It was weird in a way that from what I have cleaned so far, I had seen empty rooms and didn't see a reason for an underground one. Or are there earthquakes around here? What is even an earthquake?
Should I check it out? Since it was covered, would it be right? Let me just check it out, and I will tell them I was cleaning up.
Hmmm, it wouldn't budge. Why wouldn't it? Hmm, there is a hole; maybe I can see what is inside there from here.
Oh, they are back! I should cover this up. This is none of my business. Besides, they helped me. Let me get out of here before they enter.
I covered it up and got to the toilet fast before they could enter. When they did, I came out of there like I went to take a dump.
They entered.
[Amelie] "Anon!! We are home!"
[Jonah] "Everywhere looks so clean."
[Amelie] "Wow! He cleaned up; he is such a nice—"
[Jonah] "Look!! The rug isn't placed well, do you think?!!"
[Amelie] "No, he can't; he wouldn't—ANON!! ANON!!"
They started behaving mysteriously, and I hid behind the wall to see what was making them act like that.
